According to an EIA official, EIA reports a more complete measure of oil and gas reserves because it receives reports of proved reserves from both private and publically held companies.” [350] Press release: “3 to 4.3 Billion Barrels of Technically Recoverable Oil Assessed in North Dakota and Montana’s Bakken Formation—25 Times More Than 1995 Estimate.” U.

How rapidly is infrastructure being developed in Jambi? Butanes are produced in much smaller quantities and are used mostly in refining (for gasoline blending or alkylation) or as chemical feedstock. To review, the process consists of: Removal of the overburden (timber and 30-40 meters of peat, clay, and sand) Upgrading the bitumen into synthetic crude oil (this is optional, but CNRL does upgrade at Horizon) My general observations were that this is an operation of enormous magnitude.
